Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign clear aligners offer a comfortable, discreet way to straighten teeth without braces.
At Buffalo Grove Orthodontics, we have been successfully treating patients with Invisalign since 2002, as long
as Dr. Eltink has been treating patients with braces. That depth of experience means
children, tweens, teens, and adults with simple to highly complex cases can be treated successfully with
Invisalign at Buffalo Grove Orthodontics.
We are proud to hold Platinum Invisalign Provider status since 2002, one of the highest distinctions Invisalign
awards, reflecting the volume and complexity of cases we treat. Our extensive experience allows us to treat a
wide range of orthodontic concerns, from mild spacing and crowding to more complex bite issues, with customized
treatment plans designed to fit your lifestyle and deliver beautiful, long-lasting results.
Invisalign is a powerful treatment option when designed and monitored by an experienced, well-trained
orthodontist, and that expertise makes all the difference in your outcome.
Invisalign and DentalMonitoring: A Smarter Way to Straighten
Invisalign treatment at Buffalo Grove Orthodontics is enhanced with DentalMonitoring
technology, and the combination is uniquely powerful. As the only orthodontic practice in the area using
DentalMonitoring, we monitor your Invisalign aligner progress through weekly virtual check-ins from home,
tracking fit, tooth movement, and compliance in real time.
What makes our approach especially different is that aligner changes at Buffalo Grove Orthodontics are guided
by real-time progress, not a fixed calendar schedule. We do not move you to the next aligner until your scans
confirm your teeth are ready, which means better outcomes and fewer setbacks. We can catch issues early, make
timely adjustments remotely, and keep your treatment on track without requiring frequent office visits.
Many Invisalign patients at Buffalo Grove Orthodontics go as long as 6 to 9 months between in-office
appointments. On average, Invisalign treatment at Buffalo Grove Orthodontics is faster than traditional braces.
For busy teens, working adults, and families with packed schedules, this combination of speed, flexibility,
and close monitoring is hard to beat, and it is exactly why so many of our patients choose Invisalign over
braces.
Invisalign for Teens
Invisalign for teens is a modern orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth using a series of clear,
removable aligners instead of traditional braces. These aligners are custom-made and
virtually invisible. Most people will not even know your teen is in orthodontic treatment.
Invisalign aligners allow teens to continue enjoying their favorite foods and activities while maintaining
good oral hygiene. There are no food restrictions, no wire adjustments, and no self-consciousness about their
smile in the meantime. At Buffalo Grove Orthodontics, Dr. Eltink creates personalized
Invisalign treatment plans tailored to your teen's unique orthodontic needs, and our weekly
DentalMonitoring check-ins mean we are tracking progress every single week, so
nothing falls behind.
Successful Invisalign treatment requires responsibility. Aligners must be worn 22 hours per day as prescribed
to stay on track and achieve the best results. With the right guidance, real-time monitoring, and a motivated
teen, Invisalign can be a truly excellent experience.
Invisalign for Adults
Invisalign for adults offers a convenient, discreet way to improve your smile without the appearance of
braces. Clear aligners fit seamlessly into busy professional and personal lifestyles.
They are removable, allowing you to brush and floss normally throughout treatment.
More than a quarter of our patients at Buffalo Grove Orthodontics are adults, and virtually all of them choose
Invisalign for exactly the reasons outlined above. Aligners can be removed for social events, photos, and
special occasions, and have no impact on playing instruments or other activities. Whether you are addressing
long-standing orthodontic concerns or making a smaller refinement with a touch-up treatment,
Dr. Eltink's more than two decades of Invisalign experience mean you are in
exceptionally capable hands.
Invisalign is covered by all PPO dental insurance plans and is HSA and FSA eligible.
Flexible payment plans are available through OrthoFi to make Invisalign treatment
affordable for every budget.
